For players · Mobile app Find your level.
Find your level.
Play better games.
DinkTap is the pickleball app for players who'd rather play than coordinate. Find your level, log your matches, watch your rating climb — and turn casual play into a real progress story.
Better matchups
Match with players who push your game — not too easy, not a beatdown. Built around the level you actually play.
DMR™-matched
Log every match
Every game. Every partner. Every score. Logged in seconds. Builds your history without the work.
Match logging

A rating that factors match results, opponent strength, partner strength, score margins, and recent form. The number reflects how you're playing right now.
DMR™ · 2.0–10.0
Climb leaderboards
Local rankings, streaks, milestones, and friendly rivalries. Bragging rights you can actually point to.
Leaderboards
Leagues & tournaments
Discover events near you, register, check in, and follow your path through brackets and standings — from your phone.

Court & reservation management
Availability, bookings, schedules, and player access. Built for how facilities actually run, not how spreadsheets pretend they do.
Courts · reservations

TV-ready boards for courts, brackets, scores, next-up matches, and leaderboard moments. Make your events feel like the show they should be.
Live boards
Community engagement

About DinkTap
We're building the platform
We're building the platform
we wished existed.
Pickleball is the fastest-growing sport in the country — and the tools haven't caught up. Players coordinate matches in group chats. Clubs run leagues out of spreadsheets. Brackets live on a clipboard taped to the wall. We started DinkTap because the people who play and the people who run the sport deserve one platform that works for both.
